Fort Walton

This past weekend we went to Fort Walton with some friends. We stayed at Waterscape and the kids LOVED it. It is a great family place. We will certainly stay there again, however dont know when that will be due to the oil :( We only went out to eat one night which was so nice. Brain cooked seafood for us every other night and it was so good. The last night we were there we went to Harry T's for my birthday, but rushed through the meal because Carter stared running a high fever. It only lasted 24 hours...some sortof fever virus I guess.

They LOVED this Pirate ship slide

Can't help but wonder how much longer it will look like this

One Bad "Apple"

So I decide that for Father's Day I will score big points and get Joseph an I-pad. Me being highly technically challenged and frankly uninterested thought I could just go to the store and get one. Here is how it went. For time sake...AE (Apple Employee) M (me)

Arrive at the store....

AE- Do you have an appt.?
M- Um no, do I have to have an appt. to enter the store?
AE - At this time...you may step to the side (Me and about 15 others are standing by the door)
AE - All of you without appts. may enter the store now. (People RUNNING into the store at once almost knock me and Bentley down)
M- I need an I-pad
AE - Ok, which one are you interested in?
M- Theres more than 1?
AE - Um, yes mam, there are actually 6. (he proceeds to explain, it goes in one ear and out the other)
M - I'll take that one....(No clue which one it was by the way :)
AE - LOL...we dont have them here, you can reserve one. When we get the one you want we will call you, could be a week or 3, just dont know.
M - Oh, you dont have them here?
AE- Most people know we dont keep them in stock...would you like to reserve one?
M - Sure (We walk to the computer and he types in something)
AE - Whats your Apple password?
M - Huh, apple password, whats that?
AE - If you do business with us, its customary to have a password
M- I have no idea, guess I dont have one. How about I just let him pick one out and order it.
AE - Sounds like that might be your best bet, obvioulsy you are not familiar with the way we work.

WHAT??? Are you kidding me? That store is CRAZY and those people are snooty that work there. Why are people so obsessed with technology (my husband being one of them). I called Joseph and told him what I did and I was trying to surprise him. He said I dont even want one. WHAT??? I give up. I told him thats all I had in mind, so happy fathers day with no gift :)

Good Times and Best Friends

Last night we went to Kim and Keiths to cookout and let the kids play. We all had a great time, especially the little ones. Dont have any pics of the boys, they were outside most of the time :(

Bentley LOVES her some babies


Leanne brought her dish in a Halloween Bowl...CLASSIC








These 2 had THE BEST time and played so well together

Alabama Adventure

Joseph and I took the kids to Alabama Adventure last weekend. We all had a great time.

What we have been up to....

I realize its been a while since I have updated. We manage to stay busy these days....mainly for my sanity :) We have VBS next week and I am a director again, so that will keep us busy and the week after we are going to the beach, hopefully beating the oil. The house is still for sale without much action, bad time to try and sell a house. We are giving it through the summer and if it doesnt sell, we will stay here a few more years and do some things to it that we have been wanting to do. I love our neighborhood and neighbors and especially the pool.....

This little girl is a fish with NO FEAR what so ever!!


It has taken him time to warm up, but he is swimming again and going under. He is my cautious one.



We went to the Mcwane Center with my friend Trisha and her son Cash to see the new Mr. Potatoe Head exhibit.

Last weekend Trisha and I went to Nashville to see our Best Friend Jennifer and meet her new addition, Cade Stephens...isn't he adorable! We had a GREAT time, fun girls weekend.

I took the kids to open play at Pump it Up the other day.
